Suit of the Week: Eloquii

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. Also: we just updated our big roundup for the best women’s suits of 2024!

It’s been a while since we featured a plus-size option for Suit of the Week, and this Eloquii suit is so good! I love the way the tie waist, ties, and lapels all make the pattern seem a lot more complicated than it is. It’s the kind of thing that looks cool, fun, and trendy — but also I think is really wearable to the office. (Know your office!)

The pants and blazer are marked down to $45-$55 today (Holiday Steal!), and both are available in sizes 14-28. (Sizes 30 and 32 are sold out online, but if you call your local store they may be able to help you track down the size.)

This Elie Tahari polka dot blazer is the most similar I can find, but I don’t like the larger pattern nearly as much as I like the Eloquii suit. But: I will note that Boden has a ton of great dot patterns right now, and I love the polka-dot shoes — particularly the kitten heels, Mary Jane flats, and boots.

(Oh, and Talbots has a great festive suit in a green dotted foulard, and this other Elie Tahari blazer (lucky sizes only) sort of has a polka dot pattern from afar.)
